lyrics

we’re at our expiration date
it’s time for a change where nothing’s the same
you say "it’s the only solution and way
'cause we've been drifting over places and apart each day"
as if that makes it ok
and takes away all the pain
i’ll try to plead the case, to justify
to end it all with grace
but i’m just left asking why
i’ll come up with some stupid lines
but they just come out as self pity and lies
and i’ll think, that there’s still time

it’s not easy to believe
you're really saying what you mean
it’s not easy for me to see
how i couldn’t give you what you need

it seems we wanted different things
one bounded by dreams, the other by rings
but all i can see
and all i can think
is i can’t compete
with what would wash down our kitchen sink
and it makes me sink
into this bottle of my greatest fear
that reeks of cheap thrills and cheaper beer
i’ll spill it soon
at the sound of your voice
that’s bottled up
yet has too much joy
and though i hate to say your words still have a point

but it’s not easy to believe
you're really saying what you mean
can you tell me right just when
you knew that this would end
i’d say “we got time,
we got so much god damn time”
but you don’t want to keep up the lie
and pretend like things are fine.
